HTR is the first fully automated rheometer available. Rheological measurements are carried out by MCR rheometers in the high quality the instruments are known for, while a robot handles all additional tasks pertaining to the measurement: sample loading, sample trimming and the cleaning of the upper and lower measuring system while the next measurement is already in progress. The complete automation of the entire measuring procedure, from sample loading right through to data evaluation, for the very first time allows fully realized high-throughput rheometry.
